| "I took the photos in the Royal Botanic Gardens in Sydney and the cover shot on Sydney Harbour. The short text passage comes from 'Plant-Thinking: a philosophy of vegetal life' by Michael Marder. Marder, thinking beyond earlier philosopher’s makes the point that life on earth is an expression of the relationship between earth, the ground beneath our feet and the sky above our heads. Plants are key to this expression and we can exist because of this rich green life. In the edition of this book all the individual books have different images though they all have an image of sky, an image of leaves and an image of roots. The images come from another book which was never finished, only printed as a b/w proof at Officeworks." Monica Oppen |
